The Winter Solstice is so near that for a week already the sun has stopped setting earlier and earlier and settled to set at 3.12 pm. From the Solstice day on the 21st the days start getting longer again in the afternoons. The sun still rises one minute later every morning until December 25th, then stops there and rises at that minute until December 30th.
Time to sit by the fire with my knitting and a cup of hot tea.
What a beautiful fireplace. Stay warm and cozy.
